Rose Conway-Walsh (SF), Mayo

This morning the Society of Chartered Surveyors Ireland, SCSI, launched a report on the construction costs of rebuilding the homes affected by pyrite and mica. I thank it for its work and acknowledge that it did so free of charge as a public service. I welcome the scrapping of the nonsense of the sliding scale, but there are many issues of concern outside the terms of reference. The Minister for Housing, Local Government and Heritage and the Tánaiste will know about the cost of foundations in many places. We also need clarity on the criteria for accessing option 1. As we have seen in Mayo, people are being asked for more and more information all the time. The goalposts are moving and we need clarity. Obviously, we also need the legislation to be published so people can get their lives back.
